Laura Mercier Cosmetics is a French and American cosmetics and skin care line that was founded in 1996 by celebrity makeup artist Laura Mercier.

[1] Mercier teamed up with Janet Gurwitch in 1996 to launch the cosmetics line.

From the outset, Laura Mercier Cosmetic's goal was to offer "high-quality, natural-looking makeup products for all skin tones and types", according to the Wall Street Journal.

[2] The brand became known for its focus on products to create what it calls the "flawless face",[3][4] a concept derived from Mercier's reputation for promoting naturalistic makeup.

In 2012, it became the official cosmetics brand of the second season of Project Runway All Stars.
